Summary

The investigators will explore the impact of hand cycling, on hand function in people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). The study will compare the effects of two different hand cycling approaches-steady-state and interval efforts-on improving hand dexterity in people with PD. Conducted as a clinical trial, it aims to understand if a single session of hand cycling can temporarily enhance hand function and if the nature of the exercise influences the benefit.
